Not totally sure what I am looking at, but I guess it is some type of textured artwork embossed or stamped. The lighting on such a reflective surface would have been difficult to capture and commend you on that. This does make an effective B&W!

Nicely exposed/illuminated to capture all the texture and detail in this metal work of art.

nice contrast and tonal values, but what is this - a bas-reflief, maybe?
